New banner revitalizing options for shoppers seeking greater choice in
their community

SCARSDALE, NY, July 18, 2011 /PRNewswire/ – Natural Market Restaurants
Corporation (“Natural Market”) is pleased to announce that Fresh &
Green’s has opened eight locations in Maryland and Washington, DC. As
an important part of the community and everyday life, each Fresh &
Green’s location will deliver an unmatched, one-stop grocery shopping
experience with a greater choice in affordable conventional, natural
and prepared foods. Natural Market acquired these locations from The
Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Co., which operated them under the Super
Fresh banner.

“We are extremely grateful for the warm welcome we have received from
customers, employees and community leaders,” says Matt Williams, CEO of
Natural Market. “We are investing in these vibrant communities and are
committed to offering them an outstanding food shopping experience”.

As of July 17th, 2011 all eight stores have been staffed and restocked and are now open
for business, avoiding lengthy closures. Full refurbishment of the
stores will be scheduled and announced at a later date. “Our number one
priority has been to prepare staff and to ramp up the product supply.
We will continue to expand inventories so our customers can expect to
enjoy an even greater selection of their favorite brands, along with
new and healthier options, including nutritious prepared meals, natural
local and organic foods,” says Williams.

Fresh & Green’s is a new and inviting grocery store concept that
presents customers with affordable natural and healthy food choices,
while still providing all the conventional food products and brands
that customers enjoy. The shopping experience is a key element of the
store concept, featuring educated service staff and a welcoming and
informed customer environment.

Natural Market operates several food retail and restaurant banners in
both the US and Canada, including Mrs. Green’s Natural Market food
stores in the US northeast and a soon-to-be-opened 30,000-square-foot
Wilde & Greene flagship restaurant and natural food store in the
Chicago area.
